Stanton Central Park is a stupendous location to bring the kids if you are in the area, especially if they like trains. There is an interactive water play area (though closed right now due to Covid-19), however kids seemed to still love to play with the elements there, two playground areas (one smaller playground for little children, and the other main playground), a rope web course for climbing, four tennis courts, skate park, butterfly garden, sports field, and two half-basketball courts. Even though it was the weekend, there was plenty of parking. Restrooms are available near the community center and playground area. The biggest draw is the wonderfully designed train inspired playground where excited kids could play for hours. The playgrounds are a little spread out, and open, so keeping an eye on multiple children can be a little challenging. My kids simply enjoyed it, and couldn’t stop talking about it afterwards. Please note that BBQ grills, and moon bounce jumpers are not allowed, however dogs on leashes less than 6 feet are permitted. With so many appealing recreational activities, there is fun to be had for young and old. So, bring the whole family, create memories, and bond through...
Read moreFinally got a chance to check out Stanton Central Park and it was awesome! Seriously, this place is huge and has something for pretty much everyone. The main draw for us was definitely the playground since it's so massive. Plus my youngest son is extremely obsessed with trains right now. My kids were obsessed, especially with the zipline.
Besides the playground, there's a splash pad that looks like it'd be amazing in the summer, a skate park, walking trails, and even tennis courts. The splash pad isn't separated from the park so the kids can mistake it as a play area and try to climb the structures if a parent isn't watching.
The whole park felt really clean and well-kept, including the restrooms (which is always a plus!).
It just had a really nice, relaxed vibe. Lots of families enjoying the space. We went a couple hours or so before sunset, and there was a good deal of parking and not super crowded. I'm sure with the splash pad it'll get more packed at all hours though.
Plenty of seating around for parents and benches for families to enjoy a...
Read moreVery nice park, new and super clean. There is a staff person on site which was really cool because they can help with questions about events and activities at the park. We were there for a soccer tournament and the fields were very well kept. There's a really nice, big playground for kids from age 2 to 12 to enjoy plus there's a really cool water area with machines that squirt out water and water also shoots out of the ground. Only negative is the parking, the lot is small and gets full fast. There is another lot located just south of the park and with a soccer tournament and other activities even that big lot got full. You can't park across the street in the housing tracts because it's permit parking only. I was forced to park in the parking lot for the shopping center just up the street and risk getting towed. Luckily nothing happened. Lastly, very...
